NFC Sensor Tags

Battery Free Near Field Communication sensor family

Wireless and battery free sensor data with standard NFC.

These battery-free sensing products are the hardest expression of what we do — proof that we can own the complete RF, firmware and software stack. Use them as products, or talk to us about the system behind them.

The NFC sensor family works with external sensors, meaning the items below are just examples of what our technology can do for you. Should any of our evaluation boards spark your interest but you need a different sensor or magnitude to be measured, our team is ready to assist you in creating custom solutions based on this technology. We understand that your business may have unique needs, and we’re here to tailor these products to meet your specific requirements.

Starter Kits and EVMs

Ambient humidity and temperature
evaluation board

EVAL tag Humidity

The EVAL-SNFC-RHAT evaluation board is built around NFC and sensors. It is powered by wirelessly powered by NFC from a reader or your phone and, when energyzed, the tag broadcasts NFC to the reader or phone. This board includes a relative humidity and temperature sensor for humidity and temperature measurements.

Software

Testing software

KL-OSIRIS for evaluation tag testing

KL-OSIRIS is a multiplatform software that helps evaluate functionality of SenseID, SenseBLE and SenseNFC family tags. Available at no cost, KL-OSIRIS includes detection and connection of readers to the computer, as well as displaying sensor information in screen and saving data into .csv files.
